Dear Researchers
For calculation of strain from XRD data using Williamson hall plot,Is it necessary for peak intensity normalization ? please suggest me
Best regards
The quantities which are involved in the equations when setting up the Williamsen-Hall plot are the peak widths (e.g. FWHMs). They are independent on any scaling of the intensity scale. Thus normalization is not necessary.
The most important thing is that you have to correct the peak widths for the instrumental broadening prior to use them for W-H plot.
Good luck
Thank you very much @ Jian Peng and @ Gerhard Martens for your valuable response.Would you tell me how to correct the peak widths for the instrumental broadening ? Is there any software to do this?Please suggest me ..
Please have a look at page 100 and the following ones for more details about instrumental broadening and how to get this number, etc. .....

But up to page 100 there is also a lot of information available with respect to your subject.
Good luck
